Let's PARTY!!!! Here's a Sweet Treats Party project using the delicious Sweet Treats cartridge and super yummy Basic Grey papers. Learn to make an adorable goodie box, cupcake holder, invitation, centerpiece and birthday card perfect for the sweetest girl you know. (Plus these ideas can be adapted on your own to fit any theme!) See details below. AND also see below for details on my blog candy...
I'm giving away a Sweet Treats cartridge!!!




This Sweet Treats Party project is available as a class and also as a kit. For you NorCal Cricuteers, the class is coming right up. It will be held on Thursday, March 18th at 6pm here at my home in Rocklin. The class is $25, and includes materials. Space is limited to 25 people, and most classes sell out quickly.

Kits are available as well, and include all papers, ribbon, brads, etc. Plus you'll get detailed, yet easy to follow directions with my Cricut Cut Chart, which shows you line by line exactly what to cut on your machine with all of the settings. There are also well-organized written instructions and plenty of color photographs. Kits are $25. Shipping is available, and is $5 in California, and ranges $6 to $9 in the rest of the US, depending on location. Kits will ship out by March 22nd.
























To sign up for either the class or the kit
, just email me at moniquegriffith@yahoo.com. Be sure to include your zip code so that I can calculate postage. I accept PayPal, checks or money orders. I'm also happy to combine shipping, and you can check out my other available kits in the slide show at the top of my blog. Keep in mind that some of these kits are *very* close to being sold out.





















To complete this project as shown, you will need the following supplies:
Cricut Expression and mat, Sweet Treats cartridge, dark brown or charcoal chalk ink, 3D pop dots, mini glue dots, ruler and scoring bone, tiny 1/16" hole punch or paper piercer, adhesive and standard tools such as scissors and paper trimmer, etc. Actual cupcake is not included, but it's the red velvet cupcake from Starbucks - Yum!!




If you don't yet have this super fabulous Sweet Treats cartridge, you can purchase it at Hallmark Scrapbook HERE or at Oh My Crafts HERE.

Or, you might just get lucky and WIN the cartridge here on my blog!!! Yes, I will be giving away a brand new Sweet Treats cartridge! Just make sure you're a follower of my blog, and then post a comment here on this post. Be sure to include your email address OR your Cricut messageboard name so I can contact you if you win. You can also enter by leaving a comment on the messageboard thread HERE. I will draw the winner Wednesday morning, March 10th at around 10am pacific time, and will post the winner here on my blog.



Thanks for partying with me. Now let's turn up the music and shake a tail feather!!!

paperscissors said...

okay, it is one thing for each of us to use a same cartridge to make the cuts however, it takes talent to make the right paper choices, the shadowing, embellishments!!! that is why your classes must be full!
